Macromolecules Nucleic Acids

Nucleic Acid Nucleic acids include deoxyribonucleic acid and ribonucleic acid Nucleic acids are employed in cells as both polymers and as monomers Polymers of nucleic acids are the stuff of genes

Nucleic Acids Nucleic acids are critical for life. They store important information in the cells.

Nucleic Acids There are two major types of nucleic acids: DNA RNA

Nucleic Acids Nucleotides : building blocks of nucleic acids. Nucleotides are made of C, H, O, N and P
